    Depends on where you're based. I just started on the national fleet July 1st out of Salt Lake. Ran western 11 the first 3-4 days, now I'm taking a load from Yakima WA into Atlanta. Most of the company's freight is in the Midwest so expect to run alot between Nebraska and the Eastern seaboard

    I am out of Lenoir city also. Based on what I have experienced, you will mostly be in the midwest, but also down to Atlanta a lot and occasionally arkansas and texas.

    Southeast is regional, not national.
    My understanding is southeast regional is considered Florida, Georgia, Alabama, north Carolina, south Carolina, and Tennessee.

    Does Crete require drivers to take a physical aptitude test during physical DOT?
    I am referring to lifting so many lbs off the ground, pulling so many lbs, and things like that.

    Yes it's part of the physical, 50lbs from the ground and then from trailer height
